Description
GROUND FLOOR
Stepping into this traditional country farmhouse, you’re met with an inviting warmth that sets the tone throughout. The kitchen and dining space, filled with natural light and thoughtfully finished, naturally draws people together, creating the perfect setting for shared meals and easy conversation. It’s a space that captures the essence of country living, designed around connection and everyday moments.
The living room reflects the home’s heritage, rich in character and history, offering a cosy retreat for quieter evenings or time spent with loved ones.
The annex adds a further layer of flexibility, with a second living space that can adapt to suit your lifestyle, whether as a playroom, home office or additional lounge. A spacious bedroom above provides a sense of privacy, ideal for guests or extended family, creating a home that works on multiple levels.
FIRST FLOOR & SECOND FLOOR
The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including one with an ensuite, while the remaining rooms are served by a family bathroom. These spaces have evolved over time, adapting effortlessly from bedrooms to workspaces or playrooms as needed.
The second floor introduces two further bedrooms, both enjoying elevated views across the surrounding countryside, creating peaceful, light-filled spaces to retreat to at the end of the day.
HERDWICK BARN
Positioned alongside the main house, the two-bedroom cottage has been carefully crafted, with a clear attention to detail and a strong sense of character throughout. Every element reflects a thoughtful approach to design, creating a space that feels both welcoming and considered.
Whether used as an extension of the home for family and guests, or as a potential income opportunity, it offers a versatile addition that complements the wider setting.
OUTSIDE
The grounds extend to around seven acres of varied farmland, rich in natural beauty and currently home to a small flock of Herdwick sheep. It’s a setting that invites a slower pace, offering space for children to explore, for outdoor living, or for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle, all within a peaceful countryside environment.
LOCATION
Set within the Peak District National Park, the setting balances rural seclusion with accessibility. Surrounded by rolling countryside and walking routes, with well-known landmarks such as Dovedale, Ilam Hall and Rudyard Lake all within easy reach, the lifestyle here is shaped by the outdoors.
Despite its peaceful position, the property remains well connected, with nearby towns including Leek and Buxton offering everyday amenities, alongside access to schooling and transport links, making it a practical as well as idyllic place to live.
